A group of Israeli settlers led by rabbi Yehuda Glick stormed the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound via the Bab Al-Magharebah gate early on Monday.
A statement by the Islamic Awqaf Department in Jerusalem said that the rabbi and the settlers broke into the compound and provocatively toured it under the protection of the Israeli occupation forces, according to (Petra) news agency.
Glick, who is also member of the right-wing Likud party, was appointed in the Israeli Knesset after the resignation of defense minister Moshe Ya'alon on Friday.
